Tocci Spikes a Two-Outer to Triple
Level 27
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Max Neugebauer raised to 250,000 under the gun before Michele Tocci moved all in for 1,290,000 in the cutoff. Andrea Radicchi asked for a count and called, and Neugebauer also called.
The flop came 8♠3♣3♦ and Radicchi quickly folded when Neugebauer bet 1,000,000, leaving Neugebauer heads-up with the chance to take out Tocci.
Michele Tocci: 9♦9♣
Max Neugebauer: Q♠Q♥
Tocci found himself crushed by the queens of Neugebauer until the 9♠ fell on the turn, giving him a full house and one card away from a triple up. The river was the 4♥ and Tocci found his miracle to stay alive on the final table bubble.
